lyrics

[Stephen Greenberg and George Pultz; pultzongs BMI].

Desert, wind and lightning hold the night tucked between us.
The vastness there is freedom to vanish the reigns, vanish the stains, vanish our tracks.
The shadow of the city at our backs, outside the fortress watchmen find reasons that influence treasonous acts.

Laws were made for cheaters. I have seen them stand securely.
As we ride out of the silence of so many states, through so many gates and so many walls,
somewhere I think I hear the fall of safety in numbers and weak wills colliding and not deciding at all.

Living on the outside of the law. Trying to see if we can steal away. Living on the outside of the law. Trying to stay free another day.

Flashing hooves like pistons found a wildcat uncoiled.
With quick sporadic motions to conquer the plight, conquer the night, conquer the foe,
the stallion struck a glancing blow. The cat recoiled, its intentions disrupting; but not corrupting the flow.

The aging walls are heavy that held our destinations.
They forced us to find new roads to salvage our youth, salvage our truth, salvage our tears.
The laws that bind them are here. The law that guides us is far in the distance; so our resistance is clear.

Living on the outside of the law. Trying to see if we can steal away. Living on the outside of the law. Trying to stay free another day.
